Cameron was taken aback for a moment, his gaze lingering thoughtfully on Nathalie. She was dressed to the nines today, and Greta's suspicions weren't totally off base.
Nathalie, though, had picked up Greta's ability to brew up a storm like a pro and defended herself with confidence. "Relax. I'm not the type to go back to old flames. Cameron? He's just like a pair of worn-out shoes to me, but you treat him like a treasure. Honestly, I'd rather marry a beggar than go back to him. I'm not making the same mistake twice."
Cameron's handsome face darkened at her words. It felt like Nathalie was trampling on his pride.
Still, he chose not to clash with Nathalie. He figured he owed her this much, so he let her vent and get it out of her system.
But his silence only riled up Greta. She whined, "Cameron, she's tearing you down like that, and you're just going to take it?"
Cameron shrugged. "A real man doesn't get into it with a woman."
Greta was left speechless.
Nathalie's eyes darted between Cameron and Greta, picking up on the tension simmering there more than ever.
Greta was fuming inside, her expression anything but pleasant.
Cameron switched gears. "Greta, I'm going to check with your doctor about your condition."
